Montauk Is Coming to Broadway in 2027
One of the most anticipated new plays of the 2026-2027 Broadway season is on its way. Montauk, a world premiere by acclaimed playwright David Hare, will star Laura Linney and open at the Samuel J. Friedman Theatre in Spring 2027. Produced by Manhattan Theatre Club, the play tells the story of two artists whose lives become deeply entangled both professionally and romantically. With Daniel Sullivan directing and a cast led by one of the most celebrated stage and screen actresses of her generation, this one has all the ingredients of a must-see Broadway event.
Tickets are not yet on sale to the general public, but when they become available, they are expected to move quickly. Laura Linney is a major Broadway draw, and a new David Hare play is always a hot ticket.

Montauk on Broadway: What to Know About the New David Hare Play
David Hare is one of the most prolific and respected playwrights in the English-speaking world. Over a career spanning more than five decades, he has written landmark works including Plenty, Skylight, The Blue Room, and the Academy Award-nominated screenplay for The Hours. His plays are known for their sharp intelligence, emotional depth, and willingness to tackle complex human relationships. Montauk marks his latest original work for the stage, and it arrives on Broadway with significant anticipation.
Laura Linney, who will lead the cast, is no stranger to Broadway. She earned Tony Award nominations for her work in Sight Unseen, The Crucible, and Time Stands Still, and won the award for The Little Foxes. On screen, she is known for acclaimed performances in The Truman Show, You Can Count on Me, Ozark, and The Big C. Her return to the stage in a world premiere is a major event in itself.
The production will be directed by Daniel Sullivan, a Tony Award-winning director whose Broadway credits include Proof, Rabbit Hole, and The Price. Sullivan has a long history with Manhattan Theatre Club, which is producing Montauk at their home venue, the Samuel J. Friedman Theatre on West 47th Street. The intimate 650-seat theater is one of the premier houses on Broadway for new plays.
Montauk is described as a story about two artists whose creative and personal lives become deeply intertwined. While full plot details are being kept under wraps ahead of the premiere, the combination of Hare, Linney, and Sullivan suggests a character-driven drama with emotional weight and intellectual rigor. Manhattan Theatre Club has a track record of launching major new American and British plays -- recent MTC premieres that went on to acclaim include Cost of Living, The Waverly Gallery, and The Father.
The play is expected to begin performances in Spring 2027, with an official opening night to be announced. The Samuel J. Friedman Theatre is located at 261 West 47th Street in the heart of the Broadway theater district, easily accessible by subway (Times Square-42nd Street or 49th Street stations) and surrounded by dining and entertainment options.
